This video brought back vivid memories of when I returned to my neighborhood after spending two years in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.The GIs in this video are caught on video tape saying what we used to say when we returned home.Unless you have been in the military during a war you have no idea what it is like. People make some of the dumbest comments ever heard. This is a GREAT video and tells it like it is.TURN UP YOUR SOUNDWATCH VIDEO HERE:http://www.youtube.com/v/WQlHvGZIYm0&hl=en_US&fs=1CLICK ON DIAMOND-SHAPED ARROW TO PLAY THIS VIDEO
